Walkthrough

Delta wing of reinforcements is a available; this is a hard mission, so don't be afraid to call them in. Killing an Azrael triggers enemy fighters to arrive, so focus on the freighters first, or wait until they depart, as destroying them is only a secondary objective. The Scorpions are punily armed and are attacking your wingmen, not you specifically, so there's little immediate threat. In fact, one of the Shivan wings will depart once Beta is destroyed.

Once the freighters are all destroyed or departed, kill one Azrael and wait for a fighter wing to arrive. Kill the other transport and finish off the following fighters. Then get that cargo scanned and witness a bit of GTT Stern drama.

Note

The ship, number of weapons, and hull integrity that you had when you exited the last mission will be the same in the beginning of this mission.
